General Grants pithy remarks, that
eff nobody had been left but the SOL
diers, we would have had peace in a
year." and that he had observed that
''some of the warriors did not get
warmed up to the fight till it was over, "
indicate the frame of mind in which he
died. 1t is remarkable fact that near
ly all the great men identified with the
struggle of the rebellion came in the
end to have this feeling toward the
southern section of the land. Seward,
Chase, Sumner, Andrew, among the
statesmen, are most conspicuous in this
connection. Of the military men who
saw the highest service, the most of
them hardly waited for this change of
heart. 1t was part of the spirit that
made them both brave and great.
-
Yes, Cleveland did make mistake.
He thought the war was over and paid
some attention to the advice of a re-
publican officer. These were terrible
mistakes. Nothing fires the republican
demagogue so suddenly and fercely as
to intimate that, after twenty years of
peace, the war is actually over.

The Sharp trial cost New York up
wards of $4,000. The defendants
lawyers received something like
S75, 900, and at least another S25, 900
was laid out to what was considered to
be the best advantage. Add to this
the $500, 600 which was the cause of
the trial and there is nice little total
of S625, 900, all devoted to the deplora-
BILE object of getting Mr.. Sharp into Jail
at the latter end of his existence.

Blaine's Bureau.

The Blaine Literary Bureau, with
headquarters just now in London, is
putting in what its managers evidently
regard as big ticks for 1888. Almost
every day bulletins are sent across the
water concerning the greatman move
ments, each being plentifully peppered
with references to his being regarded
as ian enemy to England" "a friend
of Ireland, =" under the ban of English
reprobation, because of his answering
attitude on the subject of protection,
etc., etc.
1t appears, nevertheless, that he is
being fed and feted by the aristocracy
about as frequently and literally as the
average toady to British titles and
"high-born" ways; and that he likes it
about as well is sufficiently shown in
his dining today with Lord This, and
tomorrow with Earl That. and the
next day with Duke The Other. Of
course he likes it. Practically every
millionaire revels in it. 1t seems to be
as natural to the rich as hard times
and tough luck are to the poor.
The difficulty of it all in his case is,
that it will sadly disappolnt those who
expect him, when he reached England,
to go about with a chip on his shoulder
daring every Tory he met to knock it
off. Blaine will go holly enough for
these same Tories before he gets
through, but it will not be until the
dining and winning and hObnobing are
over, and he is far enough away from
them, and the circumstances are such
as to enable him to convince them that
he is doing it altogether in a Pick
wickian sense.

The Republican party, by the record
it has made, distinctly represents one
side of the all important land question,
and the Democratic party, by the
pledges of its platform, the inquiries it
has conducted, and the steps it has
taken during the brief time it has had
possession of federal power, stands as
the other side-the side of the people
against monopoly.
We feel that we ought to give ex-
preston of our obligations to New York
World for having started this timely
discussion between Republicans and
Democrats that are pressing for the
consideration of the people.

1t is undoubtedly the intention of
the Republican party to faunt the
bloody shirt in the next campaign.
Every true friend of his country will
regret this. We believe the people OF
the United States are at this time
more unitedly devoted to material de-
velopment both North, South, East
and West, than at any time heretofore.
The people of the South and West
want only good will and perpetual
peace. The people can reap nothing
but tares from the sowing of hatred
and revenge. The true friends of the
country must not sleep and allow the
enemy of peace on earth and good
will to men, to SOW the seeds of strife
and illWill.

Strong complaint comes from farm
ers in Dakota against the Manatalia
railways, refusing to furnish cars for
the shipment of wheat from that re-
gion. The complaint states that the
local press is muZzled; that the free
pass system is in full operation. 1t is
hoped that the Interstate law will be
put in force, and the elevator men
combining with the. railroads, will not
be allowed to fix the price of grain.

General Daniel E. Sickles, one of the
bravest soldiers of the civil war, in a
recent interview in the New York
Herald, thus tersely expressed himself
on President Cleveland's declination to
visit st. Louis: II think the president
did perfectly right. 1t is really what I
expected after the ill-mannered actions
of those few blackguards who have
been doing all this blowing about his
going to st. Louis. am sorry, and l
am confident the majority of the Grand
Army men are sorry that the president
has felt constrained to withdraw his
acceptance"
